Bare Escentuals bareMinerals The Surprise Set

Bare Escentuals bareMinerals The Surprise Set 1

I Tivo’ed all the latest Bare Escentual programs on QVC about a week ago?� I believe it was a week ago.� Anyway, I expected that these would have some serious festive Holiday stuff going on as everyone seems to be decking the halls way early this year.

But no dice.

The show had� few odd pieces that might be considered holiday-like but for the most part it was standard bits and bobs.� Now Nordie’s has a new Bare Escentuals bareMinerals The Surprise Set which definitely can fall right into the Holiday theme of things but….snore….I’mma no likey it.�� If this is what BE has in store for this season in regards to gift sets I may be saving a whole heck of alot of money

I’ll bide my time though and wait.

Bare Escentuals bareMinerals The Surprise Set is $54 and housed in a gorgeous faux book style packaging. It looks very elegant but the colors included are a bit blah for me.

You’ll get:

  • Bare Minerals Intrigue Blush
  • Bare Minerals Spellbound Eye Color
  • Bare Minerals Surreal Eye Color
  • Bare Minerals Suspense Liner Shadow
  • Bare Minerals Secret Radiance Natural Lip Gloss in Brilliance (Angelfood Cake Flavored)
  • Bare Minerals Tapered Crease Defining Brush, Line Diffuser Brush, and Cheek Brush

For me this one is a miss but many BE fans will probably adore it.

What do you think?

Loves it?

Leaves it?

What are some of your fav sets from BE?

Tell the Muse!

Available now at Nordstrom.

About the Muse

Isabella MuseIsabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn’t blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse.

    I do like this particular set but that is because I like collecting sets which provide various types of brushes…particularly those which cannot be purchased by themselves. I think what will wind up happening is I will probably give my 13 year old the eyecolors and keep the brushes for myself. I will say one thing I dislike about collections is when particular colors can only be obtained in the collections. For example…I love Sandy the Buxom gloss, however, you can only obtain it in the Earthy Chic set in a purse size! How unfair. I mean, I only need so much ‘spiced fig’ liner!

      hi m. rome! Great idea on giving it to your daughter and keeping the brushes 😀 I know…I hate that…normally when I see a shade I like in a set I scour e-bay for it and get lucky plus it only costs me a few bucks! 🙂
